Full-Day Rome Highlights Tour

Discover the religious, historical, and cultural significance of Rome, once the Caput Mundi (head of the world) on this magical full-day privately guided tour. Walk in the footsteps of slaves and emperors, gladiators and Vestal Virgins, cardinals and artists as your expert guide weaves together the stories that have made Rome the Eternal City. Relish walking into the Colosseum and step out onto the stage – the most famous monument of the ancient world.
Plunge into the friendly hustle and bustle of 'modern' Rome as you walk around the historic centre, taking in such iconic sites as the Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona and the mighty Pantheon – the largest man-made cement dome with an oculus in the world. After a pit stop for lunch, hop in a taxi across town where your guide will lead you through the hallowed halls of the Vatican Museums to wonder and marvel at the masterpieces from antiquity and those extraordinary, god-like rivals of the High Renaissance: Michelangelo and Raphael. On exiting the Sistine Chapel your tour will end on the iconic balcony of St Peter's Basilica, after which you will have time to explore the Basilica at your own leisure.
